    Is there a way to restrict the number of lines that ditto will show when pulling up info from a field eg [+introtext+]

      Hi there,

      You can use the [+summary+] placeholder instead, and restrict the amount of content pulled using:

      &truncSplit
      &truncAt

      etc. You can specify a splitter to use and drop it into the document. I like doing it this way as at least then you have control over the content, and you can ensure the summary makes sense! U need to add summary as an extender btw in the snippet call.

        Thanks for your reply but not sure what you mean about the
        &truncSplit
        &truncAt
        could you give me an example?
        thanks for your quick reply?
